ASPARTAME (SWEET KILLER)

Image
It was a very hot day, so the moment I settled down into the comfortable chair, I popped the cap of my chilled drink. I must confess that there is nothing as refreshing as drinking a chilled bottle of low sugar beverage after working so hard in the sun.I closed my eyes and enjoyed the awakening and refreshing effect of the cold liquid.   The feeling is better experienced. Just then my friend tapped my shoulder gently; “What’s that you drinking, abi you don sleep?” “Sleep kee? You need to taste this new product. It’s just wow!” “I hear you. Just make sure it does not contain Aspartame.” “Aspar what?” That was the first time I ever heard those words. We scanned the contents of my drink and there it was ; CAUTION: ASPARTAME . That was how the whole gist started. Aspartame! It has a cute ring to it but I got to know that there are over 92 different health side effects associated with it. Studies have shown that Aspartame d

AIR CRAFTS OR AIR CASKETS ?

You call them air planes, I call them air caskets . Don’t get me wrong, it’s just that the thought of boarding an air craft in this country does not only make my heart to stop beating, but it definitely keeps me awake all through the night before my flight. I now understand why our leaders spend so much on private jets.  I am sure you are wondering where I am headed with this. Sincerely, I had forgotten about the last air crash and the very recent drama of how passengers almost suffocated and rioted because the air conditioning system of Arik Air Lagos to New York flight of March 31 st remained off for over an hour after passengers had boarded the air craft and the cabin doors were closed prior to take off. In fact, I had succeeded in ignoring that news until recently. Four days ago I read about another aviation drama and suddenly, all my doubts about this sector resurfaced. The news was that the windshield of an aircraft belonging to Overland Airways with 57 passengers on

DAY OUT WITH SMART KIDS

Image
Kids can be very smart and these kids nearly floored me. “And that was how the tortoise fell from the sky and broke his shell.” I concluded my story with a wide grin on my face and happily looked at the young children staring at me with rapt attention. Even their teacher was also engrossed. Nikky, you are still good . I praised myself and tried not to guffaw. When I was a kid, I used to love such stories. My grandmother; “God bless her soul” loved telling us such tales by the lamp light. There was never electricity back then. She was a great narrator and all she expected from us was our undivided attention. “That story is a lie!” A high shrill voice brought me back to reality. Who said that? I asked myself and searched through the young and admirable faces for who was trying to pour sand into my garri. “Be quiet Anthony!” Their teacher scolded harshly. That was when I saw the kid. He had a fierce scowl on his face and piercing eyes. He looked like tro

I got this from a friend. I loved it. I hope you will..  Enjoy Just can't fool some people on APRIL FOOLS' DAY.... Last years April 1st.. A woman wanted to play a prank on her husband to know how her hubby would react if she left without telling him where she had gone. So she decided to write him a letter saying that she is tired of him and didn't want to live with him any more and after writing the letter, she put it on the table in the bedroom before hiding under the bed.   When her hubby came back home, he saw the letter and read it, he also wrote something on it and then he began to sing and dance while changing his clothes. He got his phone, dialled someone then said: "Hey babe, am just changing clothes then will join you, as for my old madam, it has finally dawned on her that I was fooling around with her all dis while and has left...
